Shop Early to Avoid the Crowds.

The sooner you purchase your books the better. Books for the Fall 2005 semester will be available for purchase online on or after August 5. If you know your course schedule, you can save time by shopping early for your books. If you shop early, please keep your receipt and do not write in the books just in case you need to return any.

Unfortunately, due to high demand for certain courses, additional students are enrolled and we sell out of the book for that class. Our reorder system is very accurate and very fast. Usually, most reordered books are on the shelves within a week. By shopping early, you will avoid the situation of the book you need being out of stock and on reorder. Get your textbooks Online

You can get your textbooks online at: www.efollet.com. All Wheeling Jesuit courses will list the textbook needs here.  At this site you can order both new and used textbooks anytime.

Consider Used Textbooks.

Another advantage to shopping early is you will have first pick of our selection of used books. Used books usually sell out the first few days of school. You will save approximately 25% over the cost of a new textbook when you purchase used books. Unfortunately, used books sell out very quickly and may not be available for every class.

How do I find my books?

We have an excellent staff that are here to help you with any questions or problems you might have. We will assist you in locating all the required, and supplemental books and supplies you will need.

All textbooks are arranged by course in alphabetical order and then in numerical order. (e.g. ACC 123-01, ACC 124-01, ACC 316-01 - Then BIO, etc.) The last two digits of the course number are the section number. The section number is very important because different faculty teach different sections. Each professor may not require the same books. Therefore, it is imperative that you know which section you are enrolled in to insure you are purchasing the correct book.

Required or recommended?

Each book will have a course card on the shelf in our campus shop. This card will have all the information you will need. It contains which course number and section, the professors name, and if that book is required or recommended.

How many books?

Each course card will list ____ of ____ required. (1 of 1 required, 1 of 3 required, 2 of 3 required, 3 of 3 required) The cards also list the optional recommended books the same way.

Do I need to bring anything?

Your schedule - When you register for you courses, you will receive a printout of the course numbers and sections. Bring this schedule with you to be certain you are purchasing the correct books in our campus shop. (Remember, certain sections of the same class might use different books.)
